Rising temperatures through final days of April

A notable warm-up from yesterday to today and we're only continuing the warming trend through the final days of April. An average high temperature for the date in Palm Springs is 88° but we climbed into the 90s this afternoon. Both Palm Springs and Thermal reached 94°.

Enjoy the mild start to Thursday morning because temperatures will be quick to climb into the 80s before mid-morning! Plenty of sunshine for all of the desert with temperatures entering the 100s by the afternoon for the second time this year.

Temperatures may be entering the triple digits tomorrow but come Friday we'll be on record heat watch.

As of today, Thermal looks to break the city's record high for Friday. Palm Springs will be a close one to watch!
